Red, White and Blue Healthy Recipes

Happy 4^th of July!

Thank you to everyone who has fought and those who continue to fight for the Freedom we enjoy each and every day!

July is one of my Favorite months. Time for BBQ’s, friends and family. I love going to the park to watch the fireworks with my family.  It’s also my birthday month. With all the parties and party food, it can be hard to stick with our goals. I am always on the hunt for fun healthy dishes everyone will enjoy. It is so much fun to bring a healthy dish to a party that no one realizes it healthy! =)  I have some delicious and fun red, white and blue recipes for you. These recipes are delicious and will help you stay on track with your goals.
